Harrys Long Term Hope

Harry said: 'I will be sitting down with the governors today to see if we can sort out something. I'm sure we can.'

'They're looking to do something long-term – they know it's a long-term job. I'm up for that.'

'They want to build a good team. I think the future for Portsmouth is very good.'

'The top four are ahead of everyone else, but we want to be on the next level. We want to stay out of the bottom group.'

Redknapp said: 'I would like Andres D'Alessandro, but it's not up to me. Peter Storrie, our chief executive, has been talking to his agent trying to work out a deal. We can only do our best, but I'm sure we will make our best offer.'
